YOSHIMI just failed to catch the winner at Ayr on his handicap debut and first start over a mile. Richard Fahey’s grey colt should make another bold bid back at novice level. Arch Moon also ran at Ayr last time when finishing runner-up in novice company and may improve past Sword Beach. The latter finished a close-up third carrying a penalty at Wolverhampton last time while La Foglietta represents last year’s winning yard and the half-sister to no less than eight winners makes more appeal than Anno Maximo and Tenfold of the newcomers with the latter due to run at Kempton yesterday.
